Extra 18: Roger and James, Part 2 

After a week passed, Max took James out with the excuse of buying some school project supplies. 

“So, repeat the rules to me,” Max said while driving. 

“Don’t leave your side, and listen to everything you tell me.” 

“Yes… despite everything, we don’t know how he’ll react.” 

“Yes, Max, I’ll be a good boy and obey you.” 

Max let out a sigh and smiled as he parked the car. 

With that, they got out and started looking for Roger since they knew he would be at the park around this time, playing with his stepdaughter. 

After walking a little, they found them in the play area. 

“Hehe, take it easy, Cassie,” Roger said cheerfully, pushing her on the swing. 

“Higher, Dad! Haha!” she said with a big smile. 

Max couldn’t help but roll his eyes at that hypocrisy. He was taking care of a girl who wasn’t even his own flesh and blood while rejecting his real son. 

“If you want, you don’t have to talk to him,” he said when he saw the grimace on the boy’s face. 

“No…” James said, starting to walk towards them. 

The laughter stopped when the girl noticed his presence. 

“What do you want?” she asked, frowning as she stopped the swing. 

Roger looked at the boy closely, feeling a little strange. 

James only stared Roger in the eyes, ignoring the girl. 

“Hey! I’m talking to you!” she snapped. 

“Get lost, girl,” he said in a monotone voice. 

“Kid, stop intimidating my daughter,” Roger complained, frowning, but then he noticed the adult with the boy was also frowning. 

“Are you sure she’s your daughter? As far as I know, I’m the only son you have… Mr. Roger,” James said, smirking arrogantly. 

“…” Now Roger did recognize him and was surprised by his attitude. 

The girl was furious and tried to hit him, but Roger stopped her, seeing that the adult with James was ready to harm her. 

“Cassie, why don’t you go buy some ice cream?” 

“But Dad, this kid insulted me, and…”

“I’ll set him straight. Go get your ice cream, and I’ll catch up with you,” he said, handing her some money 

“…” The girl took the money reluctantly and left, furious that the boy had bested her 

“Alright then, what do you want?” Roger asked irritably, crossing his arms. 

“Wow, you’re one of those who never learn or change, even as you get old,” Max remarked. 

“Relax, Max,” James requested. “And you know, I don’t want anything from you. I was just curious, so I came to see you in person.” 

“So, has Deborah already told you the truth?” Roger sold sarcastically, looking at the boy with a superior attitude. 

“No, I figured it out on my own.” 

“So, what do you want? A round of applause or something? Because if you did your research, you should know I don’t have any money. So, don’t come to me asking for support. I won’t ruin my life just because you had a tantrum or a fight with Cooper.” 

“Do you realize you’re talking to a child?” Max protested, already wanting to hit him, but he felt James holding him back by grabbing his hand. 

“Let it go, Max. And you, Roger, don’t worry; I won’t ruin your family fantasy with that ugly girl.” 

“You“: 

“I can call her whatever I want because she’s nothing to me, and now that I see you in person, I only have one thing to say to you.” 

“And what’s that?” 

“Thank you.” 

“Thank you?” 

“Yes, thank you for letting Jayden Cooper be my father Otherwise… I’m sure I’d be as pathetic as you.” 

“You…” Roger clenched his teeth and raised his hand to hit James, but he received a punch in the face instead. 

“What do you think you’re doing, huh?” Max asked, ready to hit him again. 

“Max…” 

“Don’t worry, James, I’m fine. And I’m ready to teach anyone who tries to hit you a lesson.” 

“I think this boy needs discipline.” 

“You’re not his father to decide that. Besides, as far as know, he just told you the truth,” Max said. “The one who needs discipline here is someone else.” 

Roger was about to protest, but seeing several people staring at him… he decided to walk away angrily to find his daughter. 

“Thanks, Max.” James hugged him as a few tears escaped his eyes.

It’s my job. Also, you’re a very brave boy.” 

“Hm… Max, take me home.” 

“At your service,” he said, picking up the boy to take him back to the car.

“I’ll kill him…” Jayden declared. 

“I’ll join you,” Elliot said, clenching his fists. 

“Neither of you will do anything.” George ordered. 

“Calm down,” Deborah said, holding Jayden’s hand. “And you–why did you put yourself in that situation?” she asked, looking James in the eye. “He could have really hurt you.” 

“Sorry, Mom, I… I just wanted to see that man. And you know, Mom… just by seeing him and hearing how he talks, I understand why you left him.” 

“Oh James…” Deborah sought to embrace him. 

Hove you, Mom, and I love you a lot too, Dad. I was just curious to meet that guy, but I want you both to keep being my parents.” 

“Oh, James… that will never change,” Jayden said. “You are our son, and we love you very much.” 

“Hm… I love you both a lot too,” he said, hugging them, 

“And what about me?” George said, extending his arms, making James smile as he moved over to give him a hug. 

“Ah… God, you know, Max, now you have my blessing because I also feel like punching my brother,” Elliot 

said. 

“Thank you.” 

“But ignoring this drama, who does that man think he is to say those things to my son?” Jayden said, frowning. “If James hadn’t figured it out… right now, he would be facing serious emotional and psychological damage from that revelation.” 

“I think that’s what he wanted,” Deborah said, frowning. 

What’s wrong with that 

old man? Elliot questioned. “Why did he want to hurt my nephew?” 

“I have no idea, but I think it’s the same reason he’s been targeting our company.” 

“Why do you think that?” Eric asked, frowning. 

“Because last night, I got a strange message telling me not to leave my son’s side for anything in the world…” Deborah said, showing them a message from an unknown phone number. “At first, I thought it was fake or a wrong number, but after what happened today… I think it was a warning for us.” 

*Looks like the sender sent it and then destroyed the phone because it shows an error when you try to call,” Jayden said, as he had tried calling the number. 

“I don’t like this at all,” Samantha said, concerned because their family was being directly attacked.

“You know what… I’m tired of this, I’ll be the one to look for Brandon to help me investigate this guy so we can start clipping his wings,” Jayden said, frowning and clenching his fists. 

“Son… you can’t…” 

“Don’t worry, Mom. I’m not going to ask him for anything crazy. I just want him to find all the people who were silenced after complaining about problems with the bulldings his company constructed. I want to contact them to convince them to file a joint lawsuit to get real justice and, at the same time, destroy his façade of having a perfect company.” 

“Love, I think what Jayden is planning is the right thing to do since we’ll be helping a lot of people,” Eric said. 

“Well, if that’s the plan, I support it,” Samantha said. 

“Me too,” Deborah added. 

why we’ve always made sure to use and create safe, durable materials,” Eric said. “Because what we’re building isn’t just any structure; it’s a home where people will live, and obviously, they need a safe roof over their heads.” 

know, my love.” 

“That’s right, Dad. You always showed me the importance of being honest with customers about the materials. I doubt that guy warned anyone about that.” 

“But, son, how much will Brandon charge us for this special investigation?” Eric asked, concerned because they didn’t have much money to offer as payment at the moment.
